I love sprinkles. They are just so darn fun. So anytime I see recipes that feature them, I have to check it out. I came across this Funfetti Sandwich Cookie recipe on the blog Baked Perfection. That blog is FULL of fantastic recipes, you should definitely go check it out. (The chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting are especially wonderful!) When I saw these adorable sprinkle-filled cookies I knew I had to make them. I’m so glad I did!
These were really easy to make, and the ingredient list is pretty basic. Who doesn’t have this stuff on hand? I always do — thank Heavens! The original recipe said it would make 24 sandwich cookies. I must have made mine smaller because I got 36 or so.
